Jackie Wilson performing on Shindig (Baby WorkOut ) http://www.youtube.com/wa...re=related
I was thinking about how bad today's RnB performers are compared to people like Jackie Wilson.
I mean this guy could sing and entertain with exception of Prince who in RnB is really performing anymore and yes this is kind of my response to another post about how great Nickie Majai, Lil Wayne and Drake are. Not only can they not sing but that cannot perform. [Edited 7/29/11 18:25pm] | |

Nice post. Jackie Wilson was definitely a bad-ass. "Ya see, we're not interested in what you know...but what you are willing to learn. C'mon y'all." | |

I love this stuff. Thanks Check out the clip of Jackie 10 years after the Shindig show. You can see that age has caught up with him but he is still kicking ass.

Thanks for posting. I enjoy watching pioneers show how it was and still should be done. Jackie Wilson will always be one of my favorites! "You need to laydown and let me show you how we do this thing up in funky town. From the heart of Minnesota here come the purple Yoda guaranteed to bring the dirty new sound! Come on, now!" | |

He is and always will be one of my favorites as well! I saw him when I was a kid (without my father's permission, believe me AND because I looked older than my age at the time! ) He was a hell of a performer on stage! Never trust anything spoken in the presence of an erection.

The internal sparks remains even when the physical body refuses to totally cooperate.
